Note 


Al-KindTs  “Annals  of  the  Rulers  of  Egypt”  during  the  first  three 
centuries  of  Mohammedan  rule,  is  one  of  the  chief  authorties  for  the  history 
of  the  Arab  conquerors  in  the  land  of  the  Pharaos.  For  many  years  the 
unique  manuscript  of  his  work  has  lain  unused  in  the  British  Museum  and 
has  not  been  made  accessible  to  scholars.  In  the  winter  of  1905 — 1906, 
I suggested  to  Dr.  Nicholas  A.  Koenig  that  he  make  a careful  study  of 
the  text  upon  the  basis  of  photographs  which  I had  procured  and  that  he 
prepare  it  for  publication.  I was  able  to  place  at  his  disposal  also  my 
own  copies  of  the  same  author’s  “History  of  the  Cadis  of  Egypt”  (now 
in  the  press)  and  of  the  Raf‘  al-Isr  lan  qudcit  Misr  of  Ibn  Hajar  copied 
from  a ms.  in  the  Bibliotheque  Nationale  in  Paris.  The  present  publication 
contains  the  first  part  of  this  text,  and  it  is  to  be  followed  as  soon  as 
practicable  by  the  remaining  portions.  Dr.  Koenig  has  gathered  together 
whatever  quotations  from  al-Kindfs  “Annals”  were  to  be  found  in  the 
works  of  later  writers,  and  has  in  this  manner  been  able  to  control  the 
readings  of  his  manuscript  in  various  places.  The  difficulty,  however, 
remains  of  having  to  reconstruct  a readable  text  upon  the  basis  of  a single 
manuscript.  Dr.  Koenig  has,  with  much  dilligence  and  with  distinguished 
success  made  this  reconstruction,  and  in  the  introduction  has,  for  the  first 
time,  given  a complete  account  of  the  literary  labours  of  his  author.

Introduction. 


I. 

Among  the  numerous  sciences  known  to  the  Muhammadan  world,  history 
may  be  said  to  play  one  of  the  most  important  parts.  The  subject  is 
treated  from  various  standpoints.  The  chief  one,  naturally,  is  the  chronicling 
of  events  which  have  taken  place  throughout  the  world  from  its  creation 
to  the  writer’s  time.1  A second  deals  with  a specific  country.  This  may 
cover  every  phase  of  the  government’s  administration  and  relations  with 
foreign  states  from  the  formation  of  the  state  to  whatever  date  the  writer 
may  choose  to  carry  it  down.2  Then  again  we  find  a still  further  narrowing 
down  to  certain  dynasties.  Side  by  side  with  this  may  be  placed  the 
histories  of  separate  districts  and  cities  of  a country.3  Indeed,  an  account 
of  the  holders  of  a public  office,  which  at  times  borders  on  a biographical 
dictionary,  is  likewise  termed  a history.4  To  this  class  a history  of  the 
governors  of  Egypt,  called  the  Tasmiyat  Wulat  Misr  written  by  Abu  ‘Umar 
Muhammad  b.  Yusuf  al-Kindl  may  be  said  to  belong. 

Few  facts  of  this  author’s  life  are  known.  According  to  the  short 
biography  added  to  the  manuscript  containing  his  history  of  the  Egyptian 
governors  and  that  found  in  Maqnzl’s  muqaffa,5  al-Kindl,  whose  full  name

al-Kindl al-Misrl,  was  born  tbe  10  th  of  Du-l-Higga  283  A.  H.  [Jan.  30, 896  A.  D.]. 
Later  authors  in  citing  from  al-Kindl’s  works  seem  to  have  had  some  diffi- 
culty in  determining  the  correct  form  of  his  kunya.  Yaqut,1  Tagribardl,2 
SuyutI,3  Ibn  Duqmaq,4  and  Maqrlzl5  at  times  give  it  as  Abu  'Amr,  to 
which  a later  hand  has  changed  the  original  Abu  lUmar  on  fol.  213  of 
the  Br.  Mus.  Ms.  Add.  23324.  In  an  equal  number  of  instances  some  of 
these  writers6  and  Subkl7  also  read  Abu  ''Umar.  As  the  manuscript  in  the 
British  Museum  originally  read  this  form  and  MaqrlzTs  muqaffa  likewise 
has  it,  it  is  perhaps  best  to  retain  this  reading.  The  correctness  of  the 
nisba  al-Kindl , was  evidently  doubted  by  a reader  of  the  brief  sketch  of 
our  author’s  life  on  fol.  134  a.  There  it  has  been  crossed  out  three  times.

The  reason  is  doubtless  to  be  found  in  the  fact  that  Abu  ‘Umar’s  descent 
is  traced  back  to  ‘Adi.  He  and  Sa‘d,  personifications  of  two  tribes,  were 
the  sons  of  Tuglb1  bint  Tauban  from  her  union  with  [al]-Asras  b.  Sablb 
b.  as-Sakun  b.  [al]-Asras  b.  Kinda.2  Yaqut,3  Nawawl,4  Ibn  Hallikan,5  Qal- 
qasandl6  and  Maqrizi7  state  that  these  two  brother  tribes  formed  what

was  known  as  the  tribe  of  Tuglb  which  dwellt  in  Egypt.  It  is  evidently 
to  emphasize  our  author’s  relationship  to  the  Tuglb,  that  the  al-Kindl  has 
been  erased.  Abu  ‘Umar,  however,  has  a perfect  right  to  this  nisba 
since  his  ancestory  is  traceable  back  to  the  Banu  Kinda  through  ‘Adi’s

Bahrain  Musaqqar  and  Garnr  du  Kinda  on  the  Pension  Gulf  and  to  have 
migrated  southward  along  the  eastern  side  of  the  Arabian  peninsula,  one 
hundred  and  fifty  years  prior  to  Muhammad.  In  the  South,  their  strength 
gave  them  the  upper  hand  so  that  they  soon  controlled  Idadramaut  and 
Taman.  At  the  rise  of  Muhammadanism , the  greater  part  of  the  tribe

under  the  leadership  of  al-As‘at  h.  Qais  were  converted  to  the  new  reli- 
gion, and  later  played  an  important  part  in  the  conquest  of  Syria. 

In  all  probability,  the  Tuglb  as  a branch  of  the  Kinda  likewise 
accompanied  the  expeditions  into  Syria,  whence  some  are  known  to  have 
followed  ‘Amr  b.  al-‘AsI  into  Egypt.  Al-Kindl 1 himself  relates  that  Qai- 
saba  b.  Kultum  the  Tuglbite  accompanied  ‘Amr  from  Syria  with  one 
hundred  camels,  fifty  slaves  and  thirty  horsemen.  That  others  participated 
in  the  conquest  may  be  assumed  from  the  fact  that  the  tribe  dwellt  in 
a special  hitta  in  Fustat.2  This  term  hitta  has  the  general  meaning  of 
ground  occupied  for  the  first  time,  a pitch  or  holding.  In  connection 
with  Fustat , as  with  other  towns  founded  by  the  Arabs , the  sense  is 
often  connected  with  the  foundation.3  Now  to  obtain  such  a holding  at 
the  foundation  it  was  necessary  that  the  tribe  be  represented  in  sufficient 
numbers.  At  Fustat’s  foundation,  those  who  were  not,  were  thrown  into 
one  body  known  as  the  ahl  ar-raya*  The  Tuglb,  on  the  other  hand, 
represented  by  Hu'awia  b.  Hudaig5  received  an  allotment  of  land.  Hence 
at  least  as  early  as  21  A.  H.  [641/42  A.  D.],  the  date  of  Fustat’s  founda- 
tion numerous  members  of  the  Tuglb  were  present  in  Egypt.  As  ‘Ami- 
invaded  the  country  in  18  A.  H.  [639  A D.],6  we  may  assume  that  all 
these  served  in  the  military  campaign  playing  as  important  a part  on  the 
battle  fields  as  they  did  in  the  political  inti-igues  and  in  the  governing 
of  Egypt  during  the  first  century  after  its  conquest.7 

Whether  any  one  of  al-Kindl’s  ancestors  was  present  at  the  just 
mentioned  allotment  of  land  in  Fustat,  lack  of  historical  and  biographical 
material  makes  it  impossible  to  say.  In  fact  our  knowledge  of  his  imme- 
diate relatives  is  exceedingly  meagre.  Purported  to  have  been  born  283 
A.  H.  [896/7  A.  D.],  Abu  ‘Umar  al-Kindl  was  the  son  of  a Yusuf  b.  Ya'qub, 
concerning  whom  nothing  more  than  the  name  is  known.  That  his  grand- 
father was  the  famous  philosopher  Abu  Yusuf  Ya'qub  al-Kindl  who  wrote 
at  the  courts  of  al-Ma‘mun  and  al-Mu‘tasim  [198 — 227  A.  H.  813 — 841 
A.  D.]  as  de  Slane  has  conjectured8  is  very  doubtful.  Both  MaqrlzT9 
and  the  author  of  the  sketch  on  fol.  2 a agree  in  giving  our  author’s 
great  grandfather  as  Hafs,  whereas  the  philosopher  was  the  son  of  Ishaq.

A comparison  of  the  geneologies1  of  the  two  writers  shows  a decided 
difference  in  their  origin.  The  philosopher  traces  his  back  to  al-As‘at,  the 
famous  chief  of  the  Banu  Kinda  who  after  his  conversion  to  Muhamma- 
danism married  the  daughter  of  Abu  Bakr,  the  prophet’s  successor.  No 
such  noble  descent  is  claimed  by  the  historian’s  pedegree , as  is  evident 
from  the  entirely  different  names  contained  in  it.  The  silence  of  the  bio- 
graphies as  to  the  ancestors  of  Abu  ‘Umar  the  historian  would  seem  to 
indicate  an  humbler  origin  for  his  family  than  that  of  the  philosopher  Abu 
Yusuf.  However  this  may  be,  several  men  of  ability  are  found  among 
the  historian’s  relatives.  Three  times  al-Kindi  quotes  his  paternal  uncle 
al-Husain  b.  Ya'qub 2 as  one  of  his  authorities  in  his  Umara!  Misr.  It  is 
important  to  note  that  the  nisba  at-Tuglbl  is  given  to  him.  Prehaps  it 
was  this  which  lead  to  the  erasure  of  the  al-Kindi  on  folio  134  a.3  Then 
again  al-Kindl’s  son , ‘Umar , seems  to  have  continued  his  father  literary 
work.  Ostrup,4  indeed,  has  made  it  probable  that  ‘Umar’s  kitab  misr  wa 
fada'iliha  is  nothing  more  than  an  edition  of  his  father’s  fadail  misr 
mentioned  by  SuyutT.5 

Of  the  literary  productions  of  al-Kindi,  the  majority  are  chiefly  known 
from  citations  from  them  found  in  later  authors;  only  three,  the  fada'il  misr, 
the  tasmiyat  qudat  misr,6  and  the  tasmiyat  wulat  misr 7 being  preserved 
in  manuscript  form.  To  these  must  be  added  five  others,  the  hitat  misr , 
the  kitab  al-handaq , the  kitab  alibar  masgid  aid  ar-rdya  al-a'zam,  the 
kitab  al-agnad  al-gurabd,  the  sirat  marwdn  al-ga‘d,  the  kitab  al-mawdli 
min  aid  misr  al-a'zam.  From  these  nine  titles,  it  is  evident  that  al-Kindi 
devoted  himself  to  geographical,  biographical  and  historical  studies  dealing 
chiefly  with  Egypt.  In  his  liitat  misr,  he  was  the  first  to  give  a topo- 
graphical discription  of  this  country.8  Of  a more  specific  character  is  his 
kitab  alibar  ahl  ar-rdya ,9  the  history  of  the  mosque  of  the  aid  ar-rdya. 
The  ahl  ar-rdya,  as  Maqrlzi10  points  out,  were  a combination  of  the  tribes

of  Qurais,  Ansar  and  others  who,  represented  by  too  small  a number  singly, 
to  be  mustered  separately  in  the  dlwan  of  Fustat,  were  enrolled  under 
this  name  and  awarded  a liitta  of  their  own.1  In  the  midst  of  this  stood 
the  mosque  known  as  al-gdmiL  al-‘atiq , also  called  tag  al-gavoami1  or 
garni ‘ ''Amr  b.  al-'Asi.-  As  the  only  citation  from  al-Kindl’s  ahbar  niasgid 
ahl  ar-raya  known  to  me  in  the  hitat  of  Maqrlzl  occurs  in  the  chapter 
on  the  mosque  of  ‘Amr,  it  would  seem  as  if  it  dealt  with  this  building.3 
Probably  the  kitab  al-handaq 4 dealt  with  another  of  Fustat’s  sights. 
Whether  this  al-handaq  is  the  same  as  the  one  Maqrlzl5  has  devoted  an 
entire  chapter  to  is  impossible  to  say,  as  that  chapter  does  not  mention 
al-Kindl’s  kitab  al-handaq.  Where  it  is  cited  in  connection  with  the  birkat 
al-haggdg ,6  no  definite  hint  as  to  the  possible  identity  of  al-handaq  is 
given.  Still  greater  is  the  uncertainty  which  exists  as  to  the  contents  of 
the  kitab  al-agnad  al-guraba ‘.  This  is  mentioned  on  folio  134a7  of  the 
wildt  mis-r  manuscript  in  the  British  Museum.  Folio  2 a of  this  book 
designates  it  as  kitab  al-agnad  al-yarabi.  Qalqashandi8  mentions  a kitab 
al-gasad  al-'arahl  by  al-Kindl.  Doubtlessly  the  al-gasad  is  a mistake  for 
al-gund-,  the  title  should  read  with  Maqrlzl:9  kitab  al-gund  al-'arabi. 
This  would  be  translatable  by  “book  on  the  Arabian  province*.10  Kitab 
al-agnad  al-guraba ’ or  lal-garbi  Q/a]’,  on  the  other  hand  would  mean  “book 
on  the  north  west  African  provinces*.  The  latter  leading,  kitab  al-agnad 
al-guraba1  or  al-garabi,  is  evidently  the  correct  one,  as  the  diacritical  points 
have  carefully  been  supplied  to  these  words  in  the  otherwise  almost  unpunctuated 
texts  on  folios  2 a and  134  a,  and  in  Maqrlzl’s  muqaffa.  If  Ostrup  is  correct  in 
supposing  that  the  fadafil  rnisr  by  al-Kindl’s  son,  ‘Umar,  is  based  on  a larger 
work  of  the  same  name  written  by  the  elder  al-Kindl,11  the  latter’s  consisted 
of  sentences  on  Egypt  from  the  Quran,  and  an  account  of  the  antiquities 
geography  and  history  of  this  country  down  to  al-Kindl’s  time.  Doubtlessly 
of  equal  importance  as  these,  were  al-Kindl’s  sirat  Manoan  al-gald  and 
kitab  al-mawull.  In  the  lntat  of  Maqrlzl,  we  have  extracts  from  the  latter 
dealing  with  Masruh  b.  Sindar 12  the  client  of  Zinba  b.  Rauh  b.  Salarna 
al-(jrudami,1:J  Abu  Gunaim13  the  client  of  Maslama  b.  Muhallad  al-Ansart

and  al-Harit  b.  Maskin'  the  client  of  Muhammad  b.  Rayyiin1 2  b.  ‘Abd 
al-‘AzIz.3  Ibn  Hagar  in  his  rafL  al-isr  'an  qudat  misr  cites  al-Kindl’s 
hitab  al-mawali  min  ahl  misr,  probably  at  second  hand,  in  connection  with 
the  death  of  Ishaq  b.  Furat3  one  of  the  clients  of  Mu‘awia  b.  Hudaig  and 
in  speaking  of ‘Abdallah  b.  Muhammad  b.  Hakim.4  Oddly,  enough  on  the  lower 
margin  of  folio  214b  a note  as  to  the  date  of  the  death  of  al-Harit  b.  Maskln 
from  the  hitab  al-mawali  has  been  added  by  a reader.  All  of  these  extracts  appear 
to  be  taken  from  a biographical  dictionary  dealing  with  those  clients 
who  dwellt  in  Egypt.  Whether  it  dealt  especially  with  those  rawis  who 
were  clients,  the  study  of  whom  an-NawawT5  mentions  as  one  of  the  branches 
of  hadlt  criticism,  or  not,  it  is  impossible  to  say.  That  it  contained  such 
rawis  is  evident  from  extracts  found  in  the  raf'  al-isr  ''an  qudat  misr  of 
Ibn  Hagar  and  on  the  margin  of  Or.  Ms.  Add.  23,  324  of  the  British  Museum. 

The  latter  manuscript  contains  besides  a tasmiyat  toulat  misr,  also  an 
extensive  treatise  on  the  qadis  of  Egypt,  entitled  tasmiyat  qudat  misr/' 
Professor  Gottheil , who  is  editing  this , has  been  kind  enough  to 
place  his  photographs  at  my  disposal.  The  entire  account  covers  folios 
134  b to  215  a.  This  is  divided  into  three  parts.  The  first,  folios  134  b 
to  215  a,  is  made  up  of  seven  chapters,  the  opening  one  extending  from 
fol.  134  b to  148  b,  the  second  from  149  a to  159  a,  the  third  from  159  b 
to  170  a,  the  fourth  from  170  b to  182  a,  the  fifth  from  182  b to  193  b, 
the  sixth  from  194  a to  206  b and  the  seventh  from  207  a to  215  a.  Each 
of  these  opens  with  a hutba,  which  is  followed  in  most  cases  by  the  number 
of  the  chapter. 

The  narrative  commences  [fol.  134  b]: 

In  the  name  of  Allah  the  merciful  and  compassionate  in  whom 
there  is  aid  and  protection.  The  first  chapter  of  the  book  of  the 
qadis  who  acted  as  judges  in  Misr.  Abu  Muhammad  ‘Abd  ar-Rali- 
man  b.  ‘Umar  b.  Muhammad  b.  Sa‘Td  al-Bazzar,  known  as  Ibn  an-

ted to  us  [LJ  jUs]  this  book  of  the  tasmiyat  qudat  misr  etc. 

The  remaining  chapters  commence  with  a somewhat  similar  formula.  In 
the  case  of  the  first  four  chapters  the  main  follows  immediately  and  then

an  isnad.  The  other  three  chapters,1  however,  have  the  chain 
of  authorities,  which  al-Kindl  cited,  joined  to  the  introductory  formula  and 
then  the  text.  The  opening  form  however  is  not  carried  out  throughout 
each  chapter,  the  most  common  method  being  the  citation  of  the  rawis 
first  and  then  the  narrative.  With  exception  of  chapters  two  and  seven, 
al-Kindl  is  always  cited  in  the  isnad.  His  name  is  generally  given  as 
Muhammad  b.  Yusuf.  As  is  evident  from  the  opening  of  the  treatise,  we 
have  a peculiar  form  of  editing  a book.  An-Nawawl 2 in  enumerating 
the  different  ways  in  which  traditions  may  he  transmitted  from  one  rawi 
to  another  gives  as  the  second  of  eight,  that  of  recitation  (stjyj).  Most 
traditionalists  have  given  this  the  name  of  “presentation”  This  is 

a statement  made  by  the  pupil  to  his  master  as  to  what  he  has  collected 
from  him.  This  statement  may  be  either  oral  or  written.  When  the  latter, 
it  is  given  the  special  name  of  xi.LuJi  (joy*,  when  the  first,  it  is  called 
B tlys.  While  the  statement  is  being  made  orally,  other  pupils  may  be 

present.  These  have  a right  to  report  the  traditions  they  hear  in  this 
fashion  as  coming  from  their  master.  The  chief  formulas  used  to  indicate 
this  manner  of  transmission  are  ^Ls  olyi  [I  have  recited  before  N.N.] 

Li!j  ^Jlc  [It  was  recited  before  N.  N.  while  I was  listening] 

and  [N.N.  has  informed  us  by  recitation  before  him].3  I 

It  is  this  last  formula  that  is  used  at  the  beginning  of  the  tasmiyat  qudat  I 
misr ,4  The  whole  account  must  then  be  considered  as  having  been  recited 
by  Abu  Muhammad  ‘Abd  ar-Rahman  b.  ‘Umar  b.  Sa‘Td  al-Bazzar5 *  to  one  of 
his  pupils.  He  doubtlessly  obtained  the  material  from  al-Kindl.  Especially 
is  this  true  of  chapters  one,  three,  four,  five  and  six  in  which  every  isnad 
is  introduced  with  Muhammad  b.  Yusuf.  This  does  not  occur  in  chapters 
two  and  seven.  In  these,  it  is  only  found  with  the  first  chain  of  authorities. 
These  chapters,  however,  would  seem  to  embody  al-Kindi’s  work,  as  the 
isnads  commence  in  each  case  with  an  authority  which  al-Kindl  cites  in 
the  other  chapters. 

It  is  to  Ibn  an-Nahhas  [f  416  A.  H.]  who  reached  the  age  of  ninety- 
two  years,  that  we  owe  the  preservation  of  al-Kindl’s  tasmiyat  qudat 
misr,  which  according  to  HaggT  IJalifa 7 was  the  first  of  its  kind  to  be 
written.  The  truth  of  this  statement  is  exceedingly  doubtful,  for  in  a

manuscript  of  the  futuh  misr,  the  conquest  of  Egypt,  by  Abu-l-Qasim 
‘Abd  ar-Rahman  b.  ‘Abd  al-Hakam  at  Paris,  a collection  of  brief  biographies 
of  the  qadis  of  Egypt  is  to  be  found.1  This  forms  the  sixth  of  the  seventh 
parts  of  the  futuh  misr  and  covers  21  pages  of  about  the  same  size  as 
those  of  the  British  Museum  manuscript  of  the  qudat  misr  by  al-Kindl. 
The  account  in  the  Paris  manuscript  stops  at  the  same  year  218  A.  H.,  as

fact  is  that  the  narrative  begins  after  giving  the  number  of  the  chapter

b.  al-Hasan  b.  Qudaid  al-Azdl.  The  cursory  comparison  of  it  with 
al-Kindl’ s account  of  the  qadis  in  the  British  Museum  manuscript  which 
I have  been  able  to  make,  shows  that  much  of  the  material  in  the  former 
has  gone  over  into  the  latter.  Here  it  is  cited  as  coming  from  Ibn  Qudaid 
who  had  it  from  ‘Abd  ar-Rahman.  Numerous  other  sources,  however,  have 
been  used  by  al-Kindl,  by  means  of  which  our  author  has  been  enable 
to  enlarge  upon  his  subject.

In  the  name  of  Allah  the  merciful  and  compassionate,  in  whom 
their  is  aid  and  protection.  Narrative  of  the  history  of  the  qadis 
who  held  office  thereafter  to  our  time,  composed  by  Abu-l-Hasan 
Ahmad  b.  ‘Abd  ar-Rahman  b.  Burd.  Abu-l-Hasan  has  informed  us,  that 
Muhammad  b.  ar-Rabi‘  b.  Sulaiman  al-&TzI  has  reported,  Bakkar  b. 
Qutaiba  held  office  in  Egypt  appointed  by  al-Mutawakkil ; he  entered 
the  country  Friday  the  8 th  of  tjrumada  II,  246  etc. 

This  treatise  dealing  with  the  qadis  from  Bakkar  b.  Qutaiba  to  ‘All 
b.  an-Nu‘man  was  apparently  written  by  Abu-l-Hasan  Ahmad  b.  Abd-

A comparison  of  the  beginning  of  the  history  of  the  qadis  by  al-Kindl 
and  that  of  the  governors  shows  a difference  in  the  manner  in  which  they 
were  edited.  The  opening  of  the  latter,  “Abu  ‘Umar  al-Kindl  has  written 
this  book  etc.“  makes  it  probable  that  we  have  a copy  of  the  original  as 
it  was  written  by  al-Kindl.  The  treatment  of  the  subject  of  the  qadis 
differs  slightly  from  that  of  the  governors.  The  history  of  the  governors, 
on  the  one  hand,  is  not  divided  into  chapters.  That  of  the  qadis,  on  the 
other,  has  no  separate  headings  to  the  paragraphs  devoted  to  each  office- 
holder as  is  the  case  with  those  dealing  with  the  governors  from  ‘Amr  b. 
al-‘As!  to  Muhammad  b.  ‘Abd  ar-Kahman  [fol.  2 b — 51b],  From  this  last 
governor  to  the  end  each  new  appointee  is  merely  given  a separate  para- 
graph, a form  followed  throughout  the  qudut  misr.  The  facts  narrated 
concerning  the  office-holder  have  a certain  stereotype  form.  In  the  case 
of  the  qadis  their  appointer,  generally  the  calif,  is  mentioned  first.  Then  the 
date  of  their  taking  up  office  is  given.  Hereupon  annecdotes  to  illustrate 
the  character  and  the  rulings  of  the  men  are  introduced.  The  paragraph 
ends  with  the  date  the  office  was  vacated  by  its  holder.  The  treatment 
of  the  governors  is  practically  the  same.  The  chief  difference,  of  course, 
lies  in  the  subject  matter.  The  appointer  of  the  governor  is  the  calif. 
The  appointee  either  takes  up  the  position  himself  or  sends  a substitute. 
Immediately  in  connection  with  this,  mention  is  made  whether  he  is  merely 
to  act  as  governor  or  is  to  hold  the  position  of  police  commissioner  and 
tax  collector  in  addition.  Where  the  governor  is  a substitute,  these  last 
two  positions  are  not  given  him.  In  other  cases,  the  governor  seldom 
assumes  the  responsibilities  of  all  three,  but  appoints  separate  men  to 
conduct  these  departments  of  the  administration.  After  having  stated 
which  of  these  things  took  place,  the  narrative  continues  with  the  events 
which  occurred  during  the  governor’s  term  and  which  have  an  immediate 
bearing  on  the  history  of  Egypt.  The  whole  sketch  is  closed  with  the 

date  of  the  governor’s  retirement  and  a summing  up  of  the  time  he 

held  office. 

Throughout  the  amara  misr , al-Kindl  takes  especial  care  to  prefix 
a chain  of  authorities  to  each  fact  narrated  in  it.  Towards  the  end  the 
isnads  occur  less  frequently  and  finally  only  one  authority  is  given  — 
‘All  b.  al-Hasan  b.  !Halaf  b.  Qudaid,  from  whom  Maqrlzl1  states  al-Kindl 
collected  traditions.  Of  Ibn  Qudaid’s  life  little  is  known  to  me  except  the 

fact  that  he  tradited  on  the  authority  of  Ibn  ‘Abd  al-Hakam  and  that  he, 

according  to  Ibn  Makula,  is  supposed  to  have  been  the  author  of 
a la’rtk  misr.  The  exact  dates  of  his  birth  and  death,  I have  failed 
to  find.  SuyutI,2  however,  mentions  an  ‘All  b.  al-Hasan  b.  Farqad 


1 See  p.  1,  n.  5.  — * Suy.,  I,  173. 


14 


Abu-l-Qasim  al-Misrl,  a transmitter  of  traditions  whose  teachers  were 
Muhammad  h.  Rumh  and  Ilarmala  and  whose  death  is  placed  in  the 
year  312  A.  H.  [924/25  A.  D.]  at  the  age  of  87.  A comparison  of  Ibn 
Qudaid’s  name  as  given  by  al-Kindl,  Maqrlzl  and  Ibn  Makula1  with  that 
of  Ibn  Farqad  shows  that  both  agree  with  the  exception  of  Qudaid  and 
Farqad.  Now  the  death  of  Muhammad  b.  Rumh  was  in  242  A.  H. 
[856/57  A.  D.]2  and  that  of  Harmala  in  243  A.  H.  [857/58  A.  D.].3  If 
Ibn  Farqad , then , lived  early  enough  to  have  known  these  two  men,  he 
also  was  a comtemporary  of  ‘Abd  ar-Rahman  b.  ‘Abdallah  b.  ‘Abd  al-Hakam 
[f  257  A.  H.,  871  A.  D.].4  It  is  he,  as  mentioned  above,  who  was  the  in- 
structor of  Ibn  Qudaid.  If  Ibn  Qudaid  and  Ibn  Farqad  should  be  one  and  the 
same,  the  variant  being  due  to  a scribal  error  or  perhaps  to  an  incorrect 
edition  of  the  text,  the  date  of  Ibn  Qudaid  would  be  established.  In  any 
case  he  must  have  lived  at  this  time,  as  is  evident  from  the  use  of  samitu 
in  connection  with  the  citation  of  his  name  as  an  authority  for  events  of 
the  year  291  A.  H.  [903/4  A.  D.]. 

In  all  Ibn  Qudaid  is  mentioned  fifty-three  times.  In  fourty  of  these  he 
is  introduced  with  the  expression  haddatanl , three  with  haddatana,  five  with 
ahbaranl , once  with  qala  and  once  with  s ami  tu.  Since  this  latter  phrase 
might  imply  that  had  the  following  fact  orally,  the  other  phrases  might 
likewise  be  interpreted  as  implying  an  oral  transmission  and  as  having 
the  same  sense  as  in  the  liadlt.  Haddatanl  would  then  mean  that  Ibn 
Qudaid  read  the  narrative  to  al-Kindi  alone,5  and  haddatana  that  he  read 
it  in  class  with  others  present.6  Ahbaranl  on  the  other  hand  would 
denote  that  al-Kindl  read  the  passage  to  Ibn  Qudaid  privately7  and  qala 
would  equal  either  haddatanl  \_-nu]  or  ahbarani  [-na].8  That  such  is  the 
manner  in  which  al-Kindi  collected  his  material  is  uncertain,  since 
it  is  a well  known  fact  that  even  when  a rdwi  received  a tradition  in 
a wi'itten  form  or  read  it  in  a book,  he  used  haddatanl  and  ahbaranl  and  i 
the  like  without  mentioning  the  book.  He  even  said  sami'tuJ  Indeed, 
Ibn  Qudaid  is  known  to  have  reedited  the  futuh  mis r of  Ibn  ‘Abd  al- 
Hakam,  and  Ibn  Makula,10  when  he  states  that  Ibn  Qudaid  wrote  a ta’rih 
misr  doubtlessly  refers  to  this  redaction,11  of  which  because  Ibn  Qudaid  is  j

often  cited  as  the  author,  a confusion  of  authorship  probably  due  to  the  fact 
that  Ibn  Qudaid  added  new  passages  to  the  work  and  in  doing  so 

joined  his  name  to  them.  Whether  the  redacted  copy  of  the  futuh 

misr  is  meant  by  Ibn  Makula  or  not,  al-Kindl  since  Ibn  ‘Abd  al-Hakam’s 
name  follows  that  of  Ibn  Qudaid  in  several  isnads,  must  have  had  access 
to  this  either  in  a written  form  or  heard  it  read  privately  or  in  public. 
Other  names  following  Ibn  Qudaid’s  are  ‘Ubaidallah  b.  Sa‘ld  b.  ‘Ufair 
al-Ansan,  Yahya  b.  ‘Utman  b.  Salih,  Harun  b.  Sa‘Td  b.  al-Haitam,  ‘All 
b.  Ahmad  b.  Sulaiman,  Abu  Nasr  Ahmad  b.  ‘All  b.  Salih  and  ‘All  b.  ‘Umar. 
In  the  case,  ofYahyab.‘Utmanb.  Salih,  since  al-Kindl  uses  the  pharses  [Fol.l99b]: 
Lo'A>  or  and  ^ 'AjlX.'s  qjS 

qJ  qj  gUj  0,/s  i 20!  oVjiA'i 

it  appears  likely  that  Ibn  Qudaid  quotes  him  at  first  hand.  Until  a 

complete  edition  of  the  futuh  misr  is  accessable  it  is  impossible  to  deter- 
mine whether  any  of  the  others  were  originally  quoted  by  Ibn  ‘Abd  al- 
Ilakam  himself.  In  fact  it  would  not  be  surprising  at  all  that  a greater 
part  of  them  was  cited  by  him.  If  such  is  the  case,  the  neglect  of 
this  author  by  al-Kindl  may  be  due  to  the  fact  that  he  obtained  his 
material  from  Ibn  Qudaid  according  to  one  of  the  many  methods 2 em- 
ployed in  transmitting  the  hadit;  — methods,  which,  according  to  SuyutI, 
were  adopted  in  Egypt  by  the  huffaz  al-luga  of  al-Kindl’s  time.3  That 
these  were  also  in  vogue  among  Egyptian  historians  of  this  period  is 
evident  from  the  manner  in  which  al-Kindl  cites  his  authorities  in  the 
umaraL  misr , from  the  form  of  his  qudat  misr  and  from  the  occurrence 
of  his  name  in  the  Paris  manuscript  of  the  futuh  misr*  An  explanation 
of  this  latter  peculiarity,  only  seems  possible  if  one  of  the  rules,  perhaps 
applied  to  the  transmission  of  the  hadit  has  been  followed. 

The  remaining  authorities  who  seem  to  be  cited  at  first  hand  are 
twenty-one  in  all.  As  Yahya  b.  ‘Utman  b.  Salih  whom  Ibn  Qudaid,  as  we 
have  seen,  cites,  is  found  among  these,  it  is  not  at  all  improbable  that 
many  of  these  are  cited  at  second  hand.  Unfortunately,  I have  been 
unable  to  place  many  of  these,  and  give  merely  the  list:  1.  Ahmad 
h.  al-Harit  h.  Moslem , whose  father  died  in  the  year  253  A.  H.  [867  A.  D.];5 
2.  Ahmad  h.  Muhammad  b.  Salama  al-Azdi , a qadi  of  Fustat  and  composer 
of  a history;6  3.  Abit  Bisr  ad-Daulabi,  i.  e.  Muhammad  b.  Ahmad,  the 
author  of  a history  of  the  califs;7  4.  Bimut  b.  M. ; 5.  al-Hasan  b.  Mu-

The  last  mention  of  a source  made  by  al-Kindl  in  the  umara’  misr 
is  on  folio  109  a,  where  Ibn  Qudaid  is  cited  with  the  use  of  samitu  (I  have 
heard)  in  connection  with  events  of  the  year  291,  H.  (903/4  A.  D.)  eight 
years  after  the  birth  of  al-Kindl.  From  this  point  on,  it  would  seem  as 
if  al-Kindl  were  narrating  contemporary  events.  The  style  is  the  same 
throughout  to  folio  131a.  Here  the  upper  left  hand  margin  contains  a 
note  that  the  history  of  the  governors  of  Egypt  as  composed  by  al-Kindl 
ended  at  this  point  and  that  Ibn  Zulaq 2 continued  it  from  there.  When 
reading  over  the  text  following  this  gloss,  one  notices  a marked  change 
in  the  style  of  the  narrative.  The  most  striking  difference  from  the 
preceeding  is  the  way  the  dates  are  given.  Throughout  the  manuscript  ' 
to  this  folio,  only  the  cardinal  numbers  are  used.  From  folio  131a  to  1 
the  end,  however,  they  are  part  in  ordinals  and  part  in  cardinals.  The  I 
ordinals  especially  replace  the  cardinals  when  the  days  of  the  month  are 
given.  Taking  this  peculiarity  into  account  together  with  the  position  of 
the  note,  one  might  suppose  that  the  glossator  meant  that  the  original 
work  of  al-Kindl  stopped  at  the  year  335  A.  H.  in  which  the  news  of 
Muhammad  b.  Turgs  death  reached  Fustat.  It  is  exceedingly  doubtful 
whether  the  ensuing  text  is  that  of  Ibn  Zulaq’s  continuation  of  this  work, 
as  the  facts  narrated  on  the  margin  are  said  to  be  narrated  in  its  be- 
ginning. The  possibility  of  course  remains  that  this  statement  might  mean 
the  introduction,  and  that  these  folios  131a — 134a  are  the  beginning  of 
the  narrative  proper  which  Ibn  Zulaq  is  known  to  have  written  from  the 
quotations  from  it  in  MaqrizI’s  hitat.  Here  it  is  called  tatimmat  kitdb 
umara  misr  lil-  Kindi  or  itmdm  umara  misr. 8

to  have  fasted  on  alternate  days.  Others  praise  him  for  his  zeal  in 
carrying  out  the  day  and  night  prayers  upon  which  Muhammad  laid  so 
much  stress.  As  a scholar,  he  is  said  to  have  excelled  all  others  of  his 
time  by  his  profound  knowledge  of  law,  strenghtened  by  his  ability  to 
recognize  sound  traditions  due  to  his  acquaintance  with  those  which  came

are  other  products  of  an-Nasa‘l.  Whether  all  of  these  were  written  in 
Egypt  before  his  departure  for  Damuscus  in  302  A.  H.  is  unknown.  Here, 
upon  his  entrance  into  the  city’s  mosque,  he  was  quizzed  as  to  his  know- 
ledge of  Mu'awia.  A strict  Si‘ite  in  belief,  an-Nasa’i  praised  the  virtues 
of  ‘All  b.  Abl  Talib.  His  questioners,  incensed  at  his  answer,  persecuted 
him  and  drove  him  from  the  mosque.  To  win  them  over  and  in  the 
hope  that  Allah  might  lead  his  opposers  to  his  way  of  thinking,  an-Nasa‘i 
composed  the  Jcitab  al-hasalis  ft  fadl  ‘ All  b.  Abi  Talib,  a collection  of 
traditions  dealing  with  ‘All  and  his  descendants.  8 An-Nasafi,  however,  does 
not  seem  to  had  much  success,  for  he  soon  left  this  city  for  Ramla  in 
Palestine,  where  he  died  in  303  A.  H.  [915/6  A.  D.]. 9 

Thus  wTe  have  seen  that  al-KTndl’s  instructors,  Ibn  Qudaid  and  an- 
Nasa‘1,  died  when  he  was  at  the  age  of  twenty  and  thirty  respectively. 
His  pupil  Ibn  an-Nahhas  was  bom  in  319  A.  H.  Hence  there  can  be  no 
doubt  that  Abu  ‘Umar  Muhammad  b.  Yusuf  al-Kindl  lived  at  the  end  of 
the  third  and  the  beginning  of  the  fourth  century  of  the  Higra.  Indeed, 
the  date  of  his  death  given  by  HaggI  Hallfa10  in  connection  with  the  qudat 
misr  is  merely  based  on  the  fact  that  the  book  ends  with  this  year. 
Especially  is  this  true  since  in  a latter  passage  he  gives  the  date  as 
350  A.  H.  [961/2  A.  D.].11  That  this  date  is  more  correct  is  evident  from  the

umara  mtsr1  which  as  we  have  seen  probably  ends  with  the  year  335  A.  H. 
Doubtlessly  Suyutl  is  correct  when  he  states  that  al-Kindl  flourished  at 
the  time  of  Kafur  the  Ibside.  With  this  the  year  350  A.  H.  given  in  the 
sketch  on  folio  134  a and  in  Maqrlzl’s  muqaffa  agree  to  all  intents  and 
purposes.  The  statements  of  Ibn  Muyassar  and  al-FaganT  quoted  in  them 
may  be  taken  as  truth,  Abu  ‘Umar  Muhammad  b.  Yusuf  b.  Ya'qub  al- 
Kindi  died  on  Tuesday  the  second  of  Ramadan  350  A.  H.  and  was  buried 
in  the  Musalla  ‘Absun  at  Fustat. 2

The  following  text  containing  the  kitab  tasmiyat  wilat  misr  is 
here  edited  from  photographs  of  folios  la — 134a  and  137a — 138b  of  the 
Br.  Mus.  Or.  Ms.  Add.  23,  324, 3 bearing  as  the  date  and  place  of  its  com- 
pletion, Damascus,  Monday  the  fifth  of  Safar  624,  A.  H.  [Jan.  25.  1227]. 4 This 
manuscript  likewise  contains  the  history  of  the  qadis  of  Egypt  [fol.  134  b 
— 225  a]  which  I have  mentioned  above.  In  the  following  discription,  I 
shall  merely  endeavor  to  supplement  as  far  as  I am  able  the  discription  given 
in  the  British  Museum  Catalogue  of  Oriental  Manuscripts.  Upon  the  upper 
left  hand  comers  of  folios  2a,  11a,  12a,  31a,  41a,  49a,  59a,  67a,  77a, 
87a,  97a,  105a,  116a,  126a,  136a,  146a,  156a,  166a.  176a,  186a,  196a, 
206a,  216a,  are  written  the  words  jLolS,  iwJuii,  etc.  until  the  last  [216a] 
*£5L3  presumably  refering  to  number  the  quires  contained  in  the 
manuscript.  Hence  the  majority  of  the  quires  contained  ten  leaves,  the 
exceptions  being  the  fifth,  seventh  and  twelfth.  As  folios  137 — 138b 
belong  to  the  fifth,  the  fifteenth  must  be  subsituted  for  the  twelfth. 

The  fly  leaf  [fol.  la]  originally  contained  five,  possibly  six  notes  — 
one  at  the  top ; four  one  under  the  other  on  the  left  side  of  the  page ; 
and  a sixth  presumably  written  from  the  bottom  to  the  top.  As  my 
photograph  of  this  page  is  very  poor,  I shall  omit  these.  As  far  as  I 
can  make  out,  they  contain  the  names  of  former  posessors  of  the  manuscript. 
Upon  the  middle  of  the  following  page,  which  appears  to  have  been 
besmudged  with  a dark  substance,  two  and  a half  lines  have  been  inscribed. 
On  the  upper  half  of  folio  2a,  eight  lines  with  diacritical  points  have  been 
written  by  the  scribe.  Here  an  attempt  seems  to  have  been  made  to  erase 
al-Kindi’s  name.  To  the  left  of  this  announcement,  which  states  that  the 
book  has  been  written  for  Sa‘d  ad-DTn  Abu  ‘Abdallah  Muhammad  b.  al-

Amir  Husam  ad-Dln  Sunqar  b.  ‘Abdallah  al-Malaki  al-Mu‘azzamT,  the  remains 
of  a note  are  visible.  The  lower  half  of  the  page  contains  an  interesting 
sketch  of  al-Kindi’s  life.  This  brief  biography,  consisting  of  eighteen  lines 
in  a course  script  with  scarcely  any  vowels  or  diacritical  points,  and 
beginning  in  the  lower  right-hand  corner,  so  that  the  lines  run  up  the  page 
until  they  meet  those  of  the  scribe,  has  suffered  on  account  of  dampness. 
Fortunately  this  life  has  been  repeated  in  twenty-one  lines  on  folio  134  a, 
where  its  position  and  orthographical  character  are  of  a similar  nature.  This 
latter  passage  has  likewise  been  tampered  with.  This  time  it  is  the  nisba 
al-Kindl,  to  which  I have  called  attention  at  the  beginning  of  this  intro- 
duction,1 * * which  has  been  crossed  out  with  a pen  three  times.  Even  though 
this  does  not  occur  on  fol.  2 a,  which  I have  used  as  far  as  possible  as  the 
basis  of  the  following  text,  I have  indicated  by  means  of  brackets  wherever 
it  appears  on  fol.  134  a,  from  which  the  variants  given  in  the  notes  are  taken.

The  naiTative  proper  dealing  with  the  Wilat  Misr  extends  from  folio 
2 b to  133  a to  which  folios  137  and  138  must  be  added.  On  each  side 
of  these  folios  seventeen  lines  in  a clear  Nashi  script  are  found.  The  text 
has  for  the  most  part  been  carefully  supplied  with  diacritical  points  and 
sporadically  vocalized.  The  orthographical  peculiarities  are  such  as  are 
found  to  a greater  or  less  extent  in  arabic  manuscripts.  Thus  the  letter 
leaf  is  at  times  written  in  the  lcufic  style  i=.  In  the  majority  of  cases, 
however,  where  it  occurs  at  the  beginning  and  in  the  middle  of  a word, 
the  scribe  uses  the  form  S',  frequently  omitting  the  upper  stroke  [^X.].

Indeed,  when  final,  kdf  resembles  lam  to  so  great  an  extent  that,  were 
it  not  for  the  sense  demanded  by  the  word  wherein  it  occurs,  it  would 
be  impossible  to  distinguish  the  two  consonants  from  each  other.  In 
marked  contrast  with  this  confusing  authography  is  the  diligence  with 
which  the  scribe  has  added  certain  signs  in  the  case  of  other  letters,  to 
avoid  any  such  confusion.  With  very  few  exceptions  ha  is  differentiated 
from  ha,  by  rewriting  the  former  in  a smaller  size  below  the  line  and 

final  ha  from  ha’  at-td'nlth  by  placing  its  initial  form  over  it.1  In  two 

cases  sin  has  the  three  dots  of  the  sin  added  in  a reversed  order  beneath 
it.2  Then  again  the  use  of  hemza  alone  or  with  elif,  waio  and  ya , is 
rarely  found.  Where  it  occurs,  it  has  for  the  most  part  been  added  by 

P P 

a later  hand.  Thus  equal  s- 1>  s- and  ! stands  for  | 

= U"';L  5 for  S [f?jU£s>  = — ltsSj]  and  J for  J [tj^j 

= ^j].  Throughout  the  medda,  wesla  and  sukiin , as  well  as  numerous 
vowel  signs  are  later  additions.  Of  the  last  the  kesi'a  is  drawn  slanting 
down  to  the  left,  thus  enabling  the  reader  to  distinguish  it  from  a fetha 
of  the  following  line.  As  a still  further  aid,  the  final  long  vowel  7,  which 

in  a very  few  instances  is  written  defectively  } has  two 

points  placed  under  it.3  These  dots,  which  in  some  modern  prints,  especially 
those  issued  at  Bairut,  are  used  to  distinguish  the  long  vowel  i from  the 
elif  maqsura ,4  are  in  our  manuscript  inserted  under  both.  In  the  first  form 
of  the  verbs  whose  third  radical  is  ya  or  waw,  the  elif  maqsura  commonly 
used  to  distinguish  the  final  ya  verbs  from  the  final  waw,  is  represented  by 
an  elif  In  the  derived  forms  of  these  verbs,  it  is  written  either  with  an 
elif  or  a ya.  The  punctuation  consists  of  two  signs;  the  first,  resembling 
an  initial  ha  5 extended  below  the  line  and  then  curved  up  towards  the 
right  corresponds  to  our  period ; the  second,  two  parallel  lines  drawn  slanting 
from  right  to  left  [//]  is  found  in  other  manuscripts.  Its  signification, 
however  is  unknown  to  me. 

The  margins  are  well  covered  with  glosses.  These  are  divisable  into 
corrections  by  the  scribe  and  by  later  hands,  a lexicographical  note  intro- 

p 

duced  by  the  styreotype  [i.  e.],  citations  from  other  authors,  numerous 
indications  of  the  matter  treated  in  the  text,  and  one  orthoepic  note 
found  on  folio  11a.  To  the  same  hand  which  has  written  the  last,  most 
of  the  marginal  indications  may  be  attributed.  These,  in  the  majority  of

building  or  a nilometer,  the  alteration  of  a mosque,  the  increase  of  taxes 
and  the  like.  The  form  of  these  notes  is  the  same  throughout,  merely  a 
few  words  with  a line  over  them  placed  opposite  the  line  where  the  topic

Ms.  illegible  de  Goeje  has  suggested  the  above  reading.

al-hulafa'  mentioned  by  Abu-l-Fida1  and  given  by  Brockelmann  as  a separate 
work  of  al-QudaT  is  identical.  For  a comparison  of  the  two  manuscripts 
of  the  kitab  ‘ uyun  al-maiarif  at  Paris  and  the  copy  of  the  Utah  al-inba 
'ala  al-anbiyu  etc.  at  Berlin,2  which  I have  made  shows  that  the  material 
and  its  treatment  are  the  same  in  all  three.  That  these  are  in  the  original 
form  as  composed  by  al-Quda‘1  is  doubtful,  as  the  colophon  of  Paris 

Ms.  Arabe,  1490  fol.  122  b states  go^bJ!  The  subject  matter 

which  at  times  is  nothing  more  than  the  enumeration  of  proper  names 
gives  one  the  impression  that  all  three  are  abridgements  of  a larger  work 
and  that  the  writers  of  the  notes  on  fol.  4 a of  Paris  Ms.  Arabe  1490,

^^**5  Ljb S are  corret.  If  such  be  accepted  as 

the  case,  Becker’s4  conjecture  that  the  difference  in  title  is  due  to  the 
fact  that  the  older  title,  kitab  ‘ uyun-al  malarif  having  been  lost,  the  first 
words  of  the  text,  the  same  in  both  books,  were  substituted  for  it  is  highly 
probable.  In  the  case  of  the  kitab  nuzhat  al-albab  attributed  to  al-Quda‘I  by  , 
Brockelmann,5  we  doubtlessly  have  the  work  of  ‘All  b.  Muhammad  al-Rauhl. 
The  confusion  of  the  authors  is  due  to  al-Rauhi’s  use  of  al-QudaTs  kitab 
uyun  al-ma‘arif.  This  the  former  copied  to  a great  extent,  omitting 
large  portions  [Adam  to  Higra,  the  governors  and  qadis  of  Egypt]  and 
adding  on  the  other  hand  new  material  on  the  Omayyads  of  Spain  and 
the  last  of  the  Fatimide  caliphs.  This  work  of  al-Rauhl,  known  as  the 
bulyat  al-zurafa  ila  mar  if  at  al-hulafa’,  was  later  joined  with  al-QudaTs  i 
original  and  edited  with  the  title  kitab  nuzhat  albab.  Of  greater  impor-  j 
t.ance  is  al-QudaTs  topographical  work  designated  by  the  glossator  of  our 
text  as  the  hitat  misr.6  This  book  unfortunately  has  been  lost.  However,' 
iiom  the  numerous  citations  found  in  later  writers  dealing  with  the' 
archaeology  of  Egypt,  a fairly  accurate  idea  of  its  contents  may  be  formed. 
Maqrizi ',  who  cites  it  as  one  of  his  sources,  gives  it  the  fuller  title,  kitab\

j al-muhtar  ft  dikr  al-Jxitat  wa-al-ahbdr.1  Yaqut,2  who  definitely  states 
s that  he  used  this  work  at  first  hand,  cites  it,  as  Suyuti3  and  Abu-l-Fida4 
j|  also  do,  by  a shorter  title,  either  hitat  misr  or  al-hitat  lil-Qudali.  The 
1 1 facts  contained  in  it,  and  for  which  al-Quda‘I  doubtlessly  depended  upon 
| al-Kindl  to  a great  extent,5  must  have  dealt  with  the  archaeology  of 
i Egypt  from  its  earliest  times  to  the  year  445  H.  [1053/54  A.  D.]  and  must 
also  have  contained  historical  data.  Al-Quda‘i’s  remaining  works  show  a 
certain  didactic  and  religious  tendency.  According  to  Maqrlzl6,  he  was 
the  author  of  a commentary  on  the  Quran.  His  daqaiq  al-ahbdr  wa 
hadd'iq  al-iltibdr 7 was  a collection  of  traditions  dealing  with  the  prophet 
Muhammad.  Then,  extracting  the  moral  maxims,  proverbs  and  rules  of 
politeness  from  the  sayings  of  the  prophet s,  he  compiled  what  was  generally 
known  as  the  lcitab  as-sihab  or  kitdb  sihab  al-ahbdr d The  traditionalists 
mentioned  in  this  book  have  been  collected  in  an  index,  musnad  as-sihab 
or  kitdb  isnad  as-sihab,10  by  al-Quda‘1  himself,  the  original  copy  bearing 
as  the  date  of  its  completion  Lrumada  II,  453  H.  [June  1061  A.D.]  preserved 
in  the  Escurial.11  Closely  related  to  this,  if  not  identical  with  it,  is  his 
treatise  on  the  sheikhs  whom  he  met  during  his  travels.  Haggi  Halifa12 
attributes  to  al-Quda‘I  a mandqib  al-imam  as-sdfdt,  or  a panegyric  on  the 
| ilafi'ite  leader  Muhammad  b.  Idris.13  Closely  connected  with  this  is  his 
prose  work  on  the  saying  of  the  calif  ‘All  b.  Abl  Talib.14 

In  addition  to  such  literary  work,  representing  a great  number  of 
I sciences  with  which  Ibn  Makula  states  that  al-Quda‘I  was  conversant, 
al-Quda‘I  devoted  himself  to  transmitting  traditions  orally.15  Thus  Abu

‘Abdallah  ar-RazI  attended  the  recitations  of  the  kitab  al-muhtalif  wa-l- 
mu'talif  and  the  kitab  fadail  abi  Hanifa  al-Nulman  wa  fadail  ashabihi 
wa  man  ahad  ‘ anhu , the  fh'st  of  which  al-Quda‘I  presented  on  the  authority 
of  its  composer  ‘Abd  al-GanT  b.  Sa‘id  al-Azdl  al-MisrT  [f  934  A.  D.]. 1 
This  same  pupil  of  al-Quda‘T,  if  ar-Raz!  may  be  designated  as  such,  likewise 
received  orally  from  him  a book  by  Abu-l-Qasim  ‘Ubaidallah  b.  Muhammad 
b.  Yahya  as-Sa‘dl. 

Though  occupied  with  such  scholarly  work,  al-Quda‘I  found  time  to 
devote  a portion  of  his  life  to  serving  the  interest  of  the  state.  Having 
studied  traditions  and  Safi'ite  law  at  Bagdad  he  took  up  his  abode  in 
Egypt.  Here,  he  held  the  office  of  deputy-qadi  of  Old  Cairo,  from  which 
position  he  was  advanced  to  one  of  still  greater  trust,  that  of  signing  the 
decrees  of  the  wazlr  Abu-l-Qasim  ‘All  al-Gargara‘1,  whose  hands  the  calif 
al-Hakim  had  cut  off.  After  al-GargaraTs  death  in  436  A.  H.  [1044/45 
A.  D.],  al-Quda‘I  must  have  continued  his  connections  with  public  life,  for 
two  years  after  his  pilgrimage  to  Mecca,  where  he  met  Abu  Bakr  al-Hatlb 
from  whom  he  collected  traditions,2  he  visited  the  head  of  the  Byzantine 
Empire  at  Constantinople  as  an  envoy  of  the  Fatimide  caliph  al-Mustansir- 
billahl.3  In  446  A.  H.  [1054/55  A.  D.],  the  well  known  famine  during  the 
rule  of  al-Mustansir  had  commenced  in  Egypt.  It  was  doubtlessly  in  search 
of  relief  that  al-Quda‘i  was  sent  to  the  Emperor,  which  the  anecdote  MaqrizT 4 
recites  hints  at.  His  purpose,  however,  of  procuring  aid  was  frustrated  by 
intrigues  of  the  Selguqs  who  brought  about  a complete  rupture  between 
Egypt  and  the  Byzantine  Empire,  which  necessitated  his  return  home.  His 
stay  at  Constantinople  must  have  been  of  some  duration,  for  according  to 
Subkl  he  collected  historical  facts  concerning  the  city  while  there.5  Not 
many  years  later,  he  died  on  Thursday,  the  seventeenth  of  Du-1-Qa‘da  454 
A.  H.  [Nov.  1062  A.  D.];  the  funeral  services  being  held  in  the  Musalla 
an-Naggar.

history  of  his  native  country / Born  at  Fustat,  Egypt,  in  281  A.  H. 
[894/95  A.  D.]2  he  was  the  grandson  of  the  Safifite  traditionalist  Yunus 
b.  ‘Abd  al-A‘lan  and  the  father  of  the  famous  astronomer  Abu-l-Hasan 
‘All  b.  Abu  Sa'ld.-*  Of  his  private  life  nothing  definite  is  known.  That, 
lbn  Yunus  was  personally  acquainted  with  al-Kindl  might  be  deduced  from 
the  fact  that  they  both  studied  under  an-Nasai.  Indeed,  the  latter  and 
his  own  father  seem  to  have  been  his  chief  instructors  in  traditions  dealing 
with  Egypt.5  These  he  doubtlessly  used  in  his  ta‘rih  misr  and  'aqida 
ft  ta'rih  as-salid.  The  first  presumably,  as  Wiistenfeld 0 has  pointed  out, 
contained  two  books,  the  greater  treating  of  the  lives  of  the  natives  of 
Egypt,  cited  by  Yaqut  and  Maqrlzl  as  ta'rih  misr 7 or  ta'rih  al-misriyin 
and  the  lesser  giving  an  account  of  the  most  remarkable  foreigners  by 
whom  Egypt  was  visited.9  It  is  from  this  that  one  of  our  marginal  notes 
is  taken.  Here  the  book  is  called  ta’rih  al-guraba  al-qadimin  in isr. 1 u 
Maqrlzl  doubtlessly  cites  the  same  work  as  ta’rih  al-guraba .ll  As  yet  no 
copy  of  either  of  these  parts  has  been  found.  This  is  also  the  case  with 
lbn  Yunus’  second  book,  which,  as  the  title  reads,  is  an  account  of  the  the 
history  of  upper  Egypt.12  Of  the  great  value  of  these  two  chronicles  there

Franc.  Codera  in  Bibl.  ar.-hisp.,  T.  7,  8,  1891,  1892,  pp.  6,  256,  273]  calls  this 
second  part  ta'rih  abl  misr  wa-l-magrib,  which  would  seem  to  show  that  it  con- 
tained biographies  of  men  from  north-west  Africa.  G . Kampfmeyer,  in  an  interesting 
article  on  a list  of  historical  works,  would  attribute  number  81  [Werke  zur  Ge- 
scliichte  Spaniens  u.  Nordwestafrikas  in  Mitteil.  d.  Sem.  f.  Or.  Spr.  Bert.  IVest-

SuyutI  that  he  only  wrote  on  Egypt  [ Hum  al-Muhadara , I,  164].  If  SuyutI  is 
wrong  in  this  statement,  another  of  lbn  Yunus’  works  has  become  known  to 
us.  On  the  other  hand,  if  he  be  correct,  the  book  mentioned  in  Kampfmeyer’s 
list,  might  be  considered  a part  of  the  second  half  of  the  whole  ta'rih  misr. 
If  such  be  the  case,  we  might  perhaps  assume  that  this  second  part,  given  the 
general  title  ta'rih  al-guraba'  [Chronicle  of  the  strangers  who  visited  Egypt] 
was  arrainged  according  to  the  countries  whence  the  foreigners  came;  cp.  fol.

can  be  no  doubt.  Especially  is  this  true  of  the  ta'rih  misr , the  contents 
of  which  are  cited  at  first  or  second  hand  by  later  historians  and  com- 
pilers of  biographical  dictionaries.1  This  popularity  is  doubtlessly  due  to 
Ibn  Yunus’  prudence,2  and  his  knowledge  of  the  rules  of  ‘ disapjrrobatiori 
and  ‘ approbation ’ governing  the  selection  of  material  from  oral  traditions. 
Al-Kutubi,  indeed  would  have  us  believe  that  Ibn  Yunus  likewise  treated 
of  these  rules.3  The  date  or  even  an  approximate  estimate  of  the  time 
of  the  composition  or  completion  of  these  works  of  Ibn  Yunus  is  im- 
possible. In  the  case  of  al-Quda‘l’s  kitab  luyun  al-mafarif  and  hitat  misr, 
on  the  other  hand,  we  may  safely  assume  that  they  were  completed  soon 
after  the  last  date  found  in  them,  namely  423  (1031/32  A.  D.)  and 
prehaps  445  A.  H.7  [1053/1054  A.  D.]  respectively.  For  the  musnad 
as-sihdb,  the  date  has  been  given  by  al-Quda‘I  as  453  A.  H.  (1061  A.  D.), 
one  year  before  his  death  during  the  famine,  because  of  which  he  was 
sent  to  Constantinople.  Oddly  enough,  it  was  during  a similar  catastrophy 
a trifle  over  a century  earlier,  that  ihn  Yunus  died.4  For  several  days 
he  had  been  noticed  administering  to  the  famished  and  endeavouring  to 
alleviate  the  sufferings  of  the  dying.  On  Sunday  the  twenty-sixth  of 
(jumada , II,  347  A.  H.,5  [Sept.  15  958,  A.  D.]  he  was  found  dead  with 
those  whom  he  had  tried  to  help. 

The  corrections  of  the  text  especally  those  by  the  scribe  himself, 
follow  to  a great  extent  the  rules  laid  down  by  the  hadit  critics.  Where 
the  copyist  has  rewritten  a word  by  mistake,  he  employs  what  an-NawawI 
terms  o yto  [erasure] 0 to  indicate  the  word  or  words  not  belonging  to  the 
original.  Of  the  different  forms  of  this  process,  which  is  considered  the 
best , that  given  the  special  name  of  7 is  favoured  most  by  the 

scribe.  This  consists  of  a line  drawn  through  the  word,  without  obliterating

the  letters  thereof.  At  times  it  seems  as  if  the  scribe,  in  order  to  follow 
the  last  part  of  this  rule,  has  purposely  drawn  the  line  through  the  tops 
of  the  larger  letters.  In  doing  this  he  approaches  what  an-NawawI  gives 
as  another  form  of  u- the  drawing  of  a line  above  the  word  to  be 
excluded , and  the  bringing  of  its  ends  down  to  the  line.  An  exact  par- 
allel to  this  is  not  found  in  the  first  134  folios  of  the  manuscript.1  The 
nearest  approach  to  it  is  a straight  line  whose  right  end  curves  upward 
being  placed  over  the  word  to  be  omitted  by  the  reader.  Where  the 
copyist  has  omitted  portions  of  the  text , he  has  inserted  a perpenticular 
line  bent  at  the  top  in  the  direction  of  the  margin  where  the  words  to 
be  inserted  are  to  be  found.  These , in  four  of  the  five  instances  which 
occur , are  written  on  the  outer  margin  of  the  page , three  from  the  line 
where  they  belong  towards  the  top,  one  towards  the  bottom  of  the  page. 
This  is  also  the  case  with  the  fifth  which  has  been  added  on  the  inner 
margin  of  folio  83b.  Here,  as  is  also  the  case  with  that  found  on  folio 


110  a,  the  passage  to  be  inserted  is  followed  by  ^ [=  this  is  correct], 


then  the  word  which  it  is  to  preceed  in  the  text,  and  then  another  g, 

On  folios  43b,  89b  and  126b  merely  is  added  to  the  omission,  a 
somewhat  better  form  of  ‘annexation*  [oU]',  as  it  does  away  with  any 
possible  confusion  arising  from  the  occurrence  of  the  same  word  twice. 


Where  others  than  the  scribe  have  corrected  the  text,  their  methods 
vaiy.  Thus  in  order  to  erase  a word,  lines  have  been  drawn  through  it 
with  a pen.  A word  poorly  written  by  the  scribe  has  a cross  under  it 
and  is  recopied  on  the  margin.  Where  a reader  has  considered  a woi'd 
entirely  wrong  and  wished  to  substitute  another  for  it,  he  has  scratced 
it  out  with  a pen  and , in  order  to  designate  the  woi'd  to  be  read  in  its 
place,  employed  the  second  form  of  ‘annexation*  used  by  the  scribe.  Once 
tbe  correction  has  simply  been  written  above  the  word  in  the  text.  By 
far  the  greater  number  of  corrections  are  those  where  the  text  simply 
has  what  appear  to  be  the  numerals  one  two  (*,  and  twelve  IP  over 
it,  the  margin  containing  a better  reading  with  either  8 or  ^.(Lo  or 
placed  above  or  after  it.  At  times , these  words  are  omitted.  All  the 
glosses,  however,  with  the  exception  of  two  which  are  found  on  the  inner 


1 Folios  135  ff.  contain  several  instances  of  this.  — 2 3 * * The  scribe  here  again 

follows  to  a great  extent  the  rules  laid  down  in  the  Taqr'ib  an-Nawawi,  J.  A. 
XVII  [1901]  531—533. 

3 An-Nawawi  states  that  those  who  are  fond  of  being  precise  busy  themsel- 

ves with  the  declaration  of  the  accuracy  or  the  weakness 

of  the  text  and  the  placing  of  latches  over  it.  The  first  is  expressed

margin,  have  been  placed  on  the  outer  edge  of  the  page  and  are  written 
from  right  to  left. 

As  staded  above,1  folio  131a  has  the  note  to  the  effect  that  Ibn 
Zulaq  continued  the  narrative  from  that  point  of  the  text  opposite  which  it 
is  written.  From  here  the  script  — it  is  also  noticable  on  the  folios  pro- 
ceeding this  — has  the  appearance  as  if  the  copyist  had  tired  of  his  task  and 
had  hurried  to  reach  the  end  of  the  book  proper  on  folio  133  a,  line  five. 
To  this , lists  of  the  fatimide  caliphs  and  the  Ayyubides  [fol.  133  a]  and 
one  of  the  Mamlukes  [fol.  134  b]  have  been  added.  All  three  are  written 
in  a poor  hand  with  few  diacritical  points  or  vowels.  These , as  well  as 
the  two  notes  at  the  bottom  of  folio  133  a,  I shall  add  to  the  text  proper. 

by  writing  ‘exact*,  , above  a word,  the  other  two,  by  placing  a sign  similar 
to  the  letter  (jo  over  one  entirely  wrong  or  giving  a poor  meaning  to  the  text. 
This  mark  is  also  placed  where  portions  of  a narrative  have  been  omitted 
[J.  A.  XVII  (1901),  pp.  533—34],  The  placed  over  or  after  the  marginal 
notes  of  the  ms.  has  probably  the  same  force  as  in  the  declaration  of  accuracy 
mentioned  by  an-NawawX.  The  figure  l4  is  doubtlessly  the  same  sign  which  an- 
Nawawl  says  resembles  and  is  place  over  mistakes  and  in  lacunas.  It  is 
interesting  to  note  that  in  the  magriby  manuscript  containing  the  list  of  histori- 
cal works  published  by  Kampfmeyer  [Mitteil.  Sent.  Or.  Spr.  Ber.  1 Vestasiat. 
IX,  74  ff.;  see  p.  76],  the  scribe  has  placed  in  the  blank  spaces,  probably  due 
to  his  being  unable  to  read  the  original,  the  two  letters  Kampfmeyer 

interprets  this  as  an  abbrevation  of  the  imperative  of  the  second  form  and  trans- 
lates ‘verbessere  du‘.  If  this  be  correct,  then  the  sign  S'  might  be  considered  as 
a development  from  , which  in  turn  is  an  abbrevation  of  the  abbrevation  ^.o 

O w - 

which  equals  . Lane,  however,  page  1761b,  defines  the  term 

as  the  puttiug  the  numerals  S',  S'4,  etc.  over  each  of  two  words  to  indicate  that 
the  latter  of  those  words  is  connected  with  or  refers  to  the  former  of  them. 
This,  on  the  other  hand,  would  seem  to  favour  a supposition  that  the  signs  in 
our  manuscript  are  numerals  used  here  to  refer  to  the  margin  instead  of  showing 
grammatical  relation  of  words.  The  found  in  the  lacunas  of  the  ms.  used 
by  Kampfmeyer  may  in  this  case  be  the  declaration  of  exactness  on  the  part  of 
the  copyist,  who  wished  to  called  attention  to  the  fact  that  the  blank  space 
was  correct  according  to  the  original  before  him.  In  similar  breaks  in  the  text 
of  the  ms.  of  Ibn  Hagar’s  raf‘  al-ifr  ‘an  qudat  mifr , Paris,  2149,  the  signs  FI 
has  been  placed.  This  would  likewise  seem  to  support  the  view  that  these  three 
marks  are  in  reality  numerals.
